The South African Centre for Epidemiological Modeling and Analysis (SACEMA), in collaboration with the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), is holding a 2 week modeling clinic from 2 June to 14 June 2014. The focus is on bringing together mathematical modeling ideas with practical approaches to infectious disease data and policy. This 2?week modeling
22 April 2014, 14:00 – 16:45 The talks will be held in the main lecture room at AIMS South Africa.
We are pleased to announce the first hands-on Machine Learning workshop using the JEDI format: http://www.cosmology.org.za/ml-jedi/ The ethos of the JEDI workshops (jedi.saao.ac.za) is to transfer skills primarily by working on real-world research problems in small groups, rather than through lectures. In this workshop we will introduce machine learning for big data problems and cover some algorithms
Held at AIMS from 20 to 22 February 2014. This workshop presents a unique opportunity for local practitioners, academics and students to interact with international leaders in research on topics and modelling techniques current in the South African and international financial markets. Intended audience Practitioners, academics, PhD (and advanced MSc) students in mathematical finance. Speakers

Dec 13, 2013 | Past workshops The Working Session on Graph Theory will take place from 9 – 13 December 2013. It aims at bringing mathematicians from South Africa and neighbouring countries together, and presenting them with an opportunity to concentrate on joint research away from their usual obligations. Graph Theory is the branch of mathematics that
Jul 12, 2013 | Past workshops Background: With Professor Frode Ronning of Trondheim University AIMSSEC is conducting research on teacher transformation. The subjects of the study are the teachers and subject advisers taking the AIMING HIGHER Maths with Wings 7-month blended learning course. This course aims to equip teachers to prepare students to an internationally comparable standard
